VIRUS

The Tropes that are associated with this organisation are:

Code Name: Everyone has a personal protection name made up of an adjective and a noun.

Custom Uniform: Everyone has a personal uniform, made of black and one neon colour of choice.

Rank Up: Everyone goes from being a "Trainee" to "Underling" after a period of posting, so everyone (usually) gets at least one promotion.

Overlord

Overlord

Torn (Overlord Violent Pillow)

The current leader of Virus, Torn is a strong visionary leader. In all his years in Virus, he has not lost sight of Virus' original goal. However, he is a person who is extremely closed off to people, not wanting to get emotionally involved in any way.

Icy Blue Eyes: Has Mismatched Eyes while in VIRUS Base/on duty for VIRUS in the form of a blue right eye and a yellow left eye, however he alters his appearance to having Blue Eyes (and white hair) while off duty as to not be as recognisable.

Bridal Carry: Does this to Azrael after the ERA 22 VIRUS Raid, much to her embarrassment.

Lance (Combatant Deadly Bullet)

A bucket of smiles, sunshine, and rainbows, Lance is best described as enthusiastic, energetic, cheery, spirited, flamboyant, and extremely helpful. Despite his friendly nature, he has the tendency to get quite serious when the situation calls for it, and has shown to be an extremely skilful fighter.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Berserk Button: Just break his glasses or insult his sister. See what happens.

Ether (Combatant Devious Dragon)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Boom, Headshot: Was the unfortunate accidental victim of this for Lance during the PVP while he was watching the match.

Hellish Pupils: Has violet pupils with black slits going through the middle.

Azrael (Combatant Diabolical Muffler)

If Torn is the "Founding Father" of Virus, then Azrael is the "Mother Figure", being the responsible, caring ass-kicker. She'll snap your neck, heal you and snap your neck again. Deep down she does care for every member of Virus, almost knowing every single one by name and liking to be one-on-one with everyone. If you do something stupid, she'd rather tear you apart with her words before her fists.

Knife (Combatant Fluffy Hamster)

A perpetually grinning, sarcastic bastard full of random antics, off-handed comments, and suggestive remarks. The Combatant of the Capture Division, he is as known for his unpredictability and ingenious tactics as for his love for cake. Tends to gravitate between being a cold-blooded, heartless tormentor and Jerk with a Heart of Gold, though he tends to be the latter unless he's in the interrogation room. See: High Octane Nightmare Fuel.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Once the facade of randomness and stupidity wears off, you'd better watch out because all of a sudden he means business. As witnessed in the battle for Combatant of Capture against Nephyl where he used a frying pan and "the power of Chinese cooking" to achieve victory.

Evil Cripple: Played for Laughs. Knife's real life player, Callum, is wheelchair-ridden and is constantly cooking up schemes to get Caleb (Arthur Ren) into humorous situations.

Forgets to Eat: Subverted. When he's stressed, he forgets to eat everything but (guess what) cake.

Word of God has also stated that if Ritchlock had never existed, Callum (Knife) and Jules (Maelstrom) would likely have been doing...stuff...

Zail (Combatant Silver Blood)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Souma (Combatant Ubiquitous Viscount)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Starcrossed Lovers: Den and Souma were dating despite them being in FIREWALL and VIRUS respectively, but this relationship was broken off by Souma when she realized that this would affect their relationship. Although they've now patched things up and they are now married.

Fighters

Fighters

Nefarence (Fighter Alley Cat)

A free-spirited, laid-back Fighter of the Wet Work Division, Nefarence is rarely seen around base but prefers to work outside solo, not trusting anyone to handle the job right but himself. Pleasant and brotherly, little do most know that everything Nef puts forward is a facade constructed to make others feel comfortable.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Michira (Fighter Bloody Pixie)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Raven (Fighter Cynical Ace)

One of many Author Avatars. The master of the "|:" face and the eternal facepalm. Raven appears to be generally serious and as the kind of person who gets things done her way, but behind the facade hides a girl who just feels better showing her competitive side in-game and honestly wants to have fun.

Only Sane Man: In real life, Allison is a member of the expansive Chen Dynasty, members of which include a derpy, perpetually hyper redhead, a secret supergenius womanizer, and the largest exporters of medical marijuana on the planet. Add her relations with Knife online and Ying (Rea) as her best friend in real life, and there you have it.

Real Life Writes the Plot: The first time she met Ying (Rea) in real life was completely based upon the first meeting of Raven and Rea's writers. Word of God has however stated that she was far more stunned at how hyper someone could be than Raven was.

Subordinate Excuse: Appears to be doing this with Knife, who is her direct superior. However, they spend an excessive amount of time together off-base, and have recently even met up IRL.

Tori / Rito (Fighter Dark Horse)

Rito was once a Fighter known as Tori, but got deleted by the love of his life. He came back with the intent for revenge, adopting a cold and well-spoken persona. Calculating, unafraid to step over people to get what he wants, he wants to prove that his former deletion was a simple lapse of judgement and he is still quite strong.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Ambiguously Brown: With his old avatar, Tori. When he wasn't merged with a monster, at least.

Berserk Button: Radai can tell you just what happens when you mention his deletion.

Radai (Fighter Furious Fluffikinz)

More often than not described as "an animal", Radai is an extremely vicious person in general. While friends would see her as a far more easy-going person that loves a laugh, she has an extremely short temper and the desire to prove herself to be the strongest she can be.

Tonks (Fighter Grim Divinity)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Maelstrom (Fighter Happy Emu)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Stalking Is Love: Maelstrom stalked Ritchlock. And boy, did she ever stalk Ritchlock.

Word of God has also stated that if Ritchlock had never existed, Callum (Knife) and Jules (Maelstrom) would likely have been doing...stuff...

Ivy (Fighter Mercurial Air)

Bouncy and cheery, Ivy might seem like an airheaded, immature child with no sense of responsibility and her heart and mind set on only fun, but don't let appearances fool you. She's actually an incredibly perceptive, highly intelligent girl who will do anything and go to great lengths to defend VIRUS, for this girl her hardest and plays to win.

Rea (Fighter Orange Zest)

One of many Author Avatars. Sunshine, double rainbows, and a sharp punch in the nuts, Rea is random derp and buried cynicism rolled into a five-foot-tall package. Second seat of the General Division, she is often found chasing after Trainees and is the one usually seen making announcements on base, most of them delving into an inappropriate or spazztastic nature.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Asian Airhead: Subverted Type Two. She's smarter than she looks, though she does have her blonde moments.

Authority in Name Only: Despite being a Fighter, Rea is still stuck doing many menial tasks such as cleaning toilets and making "DO NOT FAP" signs in the VIRUS bathrooms.

Real Life Writes the Plot: Word of God has stated that she has altered Rea's plans because of events in real life on more than one occassion, notably the sudden inclusion of a best friend in her life, Raven.

Tsundere: According to Raven, the more she complains about a guy, the more she is likely to secretly harbour a crush on them.

Damien (Fighter Silent Knife)

Not all that talkative, Damien is a serious and driven member of Virus with a scowl permanently crossing his face. Merciless and able to improvise on his feet, he is highly loyal and strong willed, taking pride in being quick and efficient in his duties.

Nephyl (Fighter Winged Dancer)

Once a shy, stuttering girl who couldn't speak two sentences without bursting into tears, being abandoned by her lover has turned Nephyl into a frosty, acerbic woman who cares for few people and is focused only on getting ahead. Few people are witness to the weakness behind the mask, and fewer are aware of who she really is.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Crow (Minion Sacred Creed)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Chime (Minion Peach Sorbet)

A FIREWALL traitor, Chime appears to be cheerful and simple-minded, and in some respects she is. However, when the situation calls for it, she can be observant, cunning, and downright brutal. After being tortured, she's far less trusting of the people she meets in-game, but continues to hide behind a sunny smile.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Attention Whore: Has outgrown this for the most part. This was especially apparent when she was a member of FIREWALL.

Badass Adorable: She's cute, but is also a force to be reckoned with in combat.

Ferrero (Trainee Neapolitan Dynamite)

Goes by the nickname Roro; she's a weird girl who enjoys messing with people and stuffing her face with questionable food. She doesn't take much of anything seriously, and tends to blurt out whatever's on her mind, disregarding however harsh it might sound. She's steadfastly loyal to those she cares about, though.

Vincent (Trainee Ultimate Ginger)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Ophelia (Trainee Green Ranger)

An upbeat, eccentric girl who's always got a quip and a smile at the ready for everyone she meets. Don't underestimate her, she's a force to be reckoned with in her own right. She doesn't let anything (or anyone) get in her way!

Admiral

Denim (Corporal 332) / Pheonyx (Admiral 332)

The current leader of Firewall, Pheonyx is described as being quite "motherly" with the members of Firewall. Approachable and kind, she becomes quite determined when it comes to combating Virus and their exploits.

Corporals

Aternity (Corporal 1314)

Passive-aggressive, critical and absolutely unrelenting are three of many ways to describe this mage. Although he is extremely loyal to his friends and those within FIREWALL, Aternity, while a brilliant strategist and fighter, is not at all subtle with most of his methods, be they social or combative.

Belial (Corporal 2350)

The Second-In-Command of Firewall, Belial goes by the philosophy of "Shoot first, shoot later, shoot some more, and when everyone's dead, ask a question or two". Vicious and merciless on the battlefield, he is not a person to be taken lightly.

Jerk With a Heart of Gold: Monochrome is known to have acted like a general dick, but genuinely cares for the people that... well, he genuinely cares about, even when he claims not to. Despite his tumultuous enmity with Morrigan, he has watched her back on more than one occasion, and has even praised her when it was due.

Gone (Corporal 562)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Morrigan (Corporal 1300)

A hyper young woman with a zest and love for anything orange, Morrigan is viewed as bubbly, energetic, and adventurous. She has a deep love for Firewall, so much so that all her cheer can get stripped away and leave something rather ruthless and serious when talking about the organisation she loves.

Arthur Ren (Corporal 6208)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Knife. Especially as Knife is known to be bisexual and Arthur...has had his moments. Wordof God has stated that their relationship is that of a bromance, but you never know.

Knight In Shining Armour: This is somewhat subverted in the sense that he is not exactly a knight in shining armour, but rather someone playing the part.

Bellame (Lieutenant 0290)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Southern-Fried Genius: It would be even more apparant if his creator could type in a good Southern accent. In her own words, "If I knew how to type in a Southern accent better, he would have one." Oh well. What can you do?

You Are What You Hate: He claimed that he hated Henrik and Monochrome (but mostly Monochrome) forever, who he resembles to a certain extent in personality .

Clio (Lieutenant 748)

Cute, adorable, sweet, naive, gullible, oblivious, generous, selfless, clumsy, and hard-working. These are just a few words to describe Clio. An optimist at heart that prefers to see the good in all, she hides a bitter side that has been hurt and betrayed time and time again.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Pandamic

The unofficial Second in Command of Catalyst, Pandamic is described as "a trickster, a manipulator, and a lover of anything fun". This can easily be set aside for her goals, adapting her personality to the situation to get what she wants.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Karella

A loyal follower of "Master Sol", Karella's obsession with her leader can be quite... intimidating. Her loyalty knows no bounds, and there is nothing she wouldn't do for him. God forbid you get between her and Master Sol. Hell hath no fury. She's a woman of many faces, too.

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Adularia

Description

Disappeared/Deleted

[Disappeared/Deleted] VIRUS (Overlord(s))

Nova (Overlord )

The original Overlord and the person who created Virus. Not much is known about her other than her utter hate for hackers.

Den (Lieutenant 8008)

The Tropes that are associated with this character are:

Star-Crossed Lovers: Den and Souma were dating despite them being in FIREWALL and VIRUS respectively, but this relationship was broken off by Souma when she realized that this would affect their relationship. Although they've now patched things up and they are now married.
